Why Education Professions?

The Certificate of Proficiency in Education Professions prepares students with the basic skills to work as a paraprofessional or assistant teacher in a school setting.  Paraprofessionals are integral to helping teachers carry out their duties in the classroom by supervising students, reinforcing lessons, and providing one-on-one student support.  The Education Professions Certificate of Proficiency also provides students an introduction to the teaching profession.  Students interested in pursuing a career in elementary, secondary, or special education may choose to continue onto the AAEE.

Career Opportunities
